Стихотворениe Ивана Лапшина для Фестиваля поэзии на иностранных языках INSPIRATIO

You and I by Ivan Lapshin

You go

And I follow.

You stop.

I begin…

You spit words, I swallow

them.

I lose and you win.

You speak

and I listen,

You jump

and I crawl.

You attract – I admire!

You fly – and I fall

I hope and I daydream

I wish and I cry.

You leave and I suffer.

I love –

and you lie…

Tomorrow will come,

I will travel.

I’ll jump, and I’ll fly,

and I’ll speak!

I’ll look at the world,

Not at you, no.

I promise, I’ll never be weak.
